Baked pumpkin cream soup with cranberries
10 servings
40 minutes
Roasted pumpkin cream soup with cranberry is a harmony of autumn flavors, combining the sweetness of roasted pumpkin with the tangy acidity of cranberry. The dish has roots in Russian culinary traditions where pumpkin has always been an important ingredient and forest berries complemented its rich taste. The soup's delicate texture is created by potatoes and cream, while aromatic sautéed vegetables add depth to its flavor. This soup warms during the cold season, filling one with comfort and enjoyment. Cranberries added before serving make the dish not only tasty but also visually appealing, adding bright accents. It is perfect as a standalone dish or a light addition to a main dinner and pairs well with fresh bread and herbs.
